era the families had about three or four children. The reason that the average of children dropped in this era was due to couples waiting longer to get married or spacing the pregnancies out. One of the big causes of fewer children in this era was because of contraceptives. Contraceptives were just discovered and many couples realize that it was a very effective method. With families having fewer children their main concern was getting their children educated and have knowledge about the economy, so they would be successful in the real world.

Before the industrial revolution people used to manufactures their goods in their homes using simple machines, but in the late 1700’s this shifted drastically in Britain. They started to implement new ideas of modernization using industries to manufacture goods at a larger scale. The steam engine, iron and textile industries were one of the many industries that played a key role to improve economy, transportation and living conditions in the late 1700’s. Without the industrial revolution we wouldn’t have the technology that we have nowadays, but the industrial revolution also brought a dark chapter for history, the exploitation of children.</p></div><div class="columns large-1-5 position-relative show-for-large card-grade-essay-words-col"><ul><li>1433 Words</li><li>6 Pages</li></ul></div><div class="columns large-2 show-for-large position-relative card-grade-essay-grade-col grade-decent-essays"><div><span>Decent Essays</span></div></div><div class="small-12 medium-12 large-1-5 position-relative card-grade-essay-button-col"><a class="button text-m " href="/essay/The-Children-Who-Built-Victorian-Britain-P3JRZ4JP9L5">Read More</a></div></div></li><li id="related-essay2"><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 large-12 card box-shadow card-grade-essay paper no-padding"><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 hide-for-large position-relative card-grade-essay-grade-col grade-decent-essays"><div><span>Decent Essays</span></div></div><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 position-relative hide-for-large card-grade-essay-words-col padding-left-1-imp"><a href="/essay/Agricultural-Revolution-DBQ-28EF7A578BF8EBA4" class="hide-for-large"><h2 class="heading-s weight-700 brand-secondary">Agricultural Revolution DBQ</h2></a><ul><li>824 Words</li><li>4 Pages</li></ul></div><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 large-8 position-relative"><div class="card-grade-essay-preview-col show-for-large"><a href="/essay/Agricultural-Revolution-DBQ-28EF7A578BF8EBA4" class="show-for-large"><h2 class="heading-s weight-700 brand-secondary">Agricultural Revolution DBQ</h2></a></div><p class="text-m break-word word-break text-ellipsis-after text-ellipsis-after">During the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries the European population grew immensely (Doc. 1).

Europe experienced tremendous population growth, but it was often decreased with plagues, wars, and famine. Food prices rose because there was a great need to feed the steadily increasing European population. This change fueled both the Agricultural and Industrial Revolutions.

These children worked long hours which they did not get paid nearly enough for. They worked hard, dangerous jobs daily. In the 1900s, children chose to support their families in times of need rather than furthering their education, for which they did not get paid nearly enough. These jobs affected their health poorly and had a negative impact on their childhood and development. Children of poor families in cities suffered the most during the Industrial Revolution, because they had to work long hours, did hard jobs, and often sacrificed their health and education to support their struggling families.</p></div><div class="columns large-1-5 position-relative show-for-large card-grade-essay-words-col"><ul><li>2015 Words</li><li>9 Pages</li></ul></div><div class="columns large-2 show-for-large position-relative card-grade-essay-grade-col grade-better-essays"><div><span>Better Essays</span></div></div><div class="small-12 medium-12 large-1-5 position-relative card-grade-essay-button-col"><a class="button text-m " href="/essay/Effects-Of-Child-Labor-In-The-Early-PZZX6PUCZFR">Read More</a></div></div></li><li id="related-essay6"><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 large-12 card box-shadow card-grade-essay paper no-padding"><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 hide-for-large position-relative card-grade-essay-grade-col grade-good-essays"><div><span>Good Essays</span></div></div><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 position-relative hide-for-large card-grade-essay-words-col padding-left-1-imp"><a href="/essay/Child-Labor-in-the-1800s-F352E936YYS" class="hide-for-large"><h2 class="heading-s weight-700 brand-secondary">Child Labor in the 1800's</h2></a><ul><li>1403 Words</li><li>6 Pages</li></ul></div><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 large-8 position-relative"><div class="card-grade-essay-preview-col show-for-large"><a href="/essay/Child-Labor-in-the-1800s-F352E936YYS" class="show-for-large"><h2 class="heading-s weight-700 brand-secondary">Child Labor in the 1800's</h2></a></div><p class="text-m break-word word-break text-ellipsis-after text-ellipsis-after">Throughout the 1700’s and the early 1800’s child labor was a major issue in American society. Children have always worked for family businesses whether it was an agricultural farming situation or working out of a family business in some type of workplace. This was usually seen in families of middle or lower class because extra help was needed to support the family. Child labor dramatically changed when America went through the Industrial Revolution. When America’s industrial revolution came into play, it opened a new world to child labor. Children were now needed to work in factories, mills, and mines. These were not ordinary jobs for young children, these jobs required much time, effort, and hard work. “American</p></div><div class="columns large-1-5 position-relative show-for-large card-grade-essay-words-col"><ul><li>1403 Words</li><li>6 Pages</li></ul></div><div class="columns large-2 show-for-large position-relative card-grade-essay-grade-col grade-good-essays"><div><span>Good Essays</span></div></div><div class="small-12 medium-12 large-1-5 position-relative card-grade-essay-button-col"><a class="button text-m " href="/essay/Child-Labor-in-the-1800s-F352E936YYS">Read More</a></div></div></li><li id="related-essay7"><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 large-12 card box-shadow card-grade-essay paper no-padding"><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 hide-for-large position-relative card-grade-essay-grade-col grade-decent-essays"><div><span>Decent Essays</span></div></div><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 position-relative hide-for-large card-grade-essay-words-col padding-left-1-imp"><a href="/essay/Child-Protection-In-The-1800s-09C37B5CB453F907" class="hide-for-large"><h2 class="heading-s weight-700 brand-secondary">Child Protection In The 1800s</h2></a><ul><li>902 Words</li><li>4 Pages</li></ul></div><div class="columns small-12 medium-12 large-8 position-relative"><div class="card-grade-essay-preview-col show-for-large"><a href="/essay/Child-Protection-In-The-1800s-09C37B5CB453F907" class="show-for-large"><h2 class="heading-s weight-700 brand-secondary">Child Protection In The 1800s</h2></a></div><p class="text-m break-word word-break text-ellipsis-after text-ellipsis-after">In the United States, the history of child protective services are divided into three eras; before organized child protection, creation and growth of organized child protection, and government-sponsored child protection services. The first time that child protection was organized was in 1875 by the New York Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children (Myers, p. 449). Before 1875, children did not have the protection that is practiced today and the intervention to protect children was uncommon. Prior to 1875, prosecution was not the only solution to child protection. Massachusetts in the early 1640s had laws that gave courts the right to remove children from parents who did not teach their children properly.

Some people have a grand life with insufficient negativity. Others people have a miserable life and non imposing. In the late 1800’s and beginning to mid 1900’s, child labor caused several children to have an inimical life rather than a preeminent life. When people read what these children had gone through, they fail to remember to put themselves in the children’s situation; therefore, they don’t understand, nor cease how horrendous life was for the children. Numerous factual documents state how deplorable life was for the children during this era.
